ABSTRACT

Resumen Los tumores adenomatoides del tracto genital son neoplasias poco frecuentes, de comportamiento benigno; debido a sus características histológicas se confunden fácilmente con tumores de estirpe vascular. Estudios recientes demuestran que los tumores adenomatoides del tracto genital femenino están genéticamente definidos por la mutación TRAF7 que activa la expresión aberrante de la vía NFkB. Presentamos el caso de una mujer de 27 años, asintomática, a quien se le realiza salpingectomía bilateral como método de anticoncepción definitivo; en el examen macroscópico de la tuba derecha se encuentra formación quística que por sus características microscópicas es diagnosticada como tumor adenomatoide de la tuba uterina. Finalmente se realiza una revisión de la literatura.


Abstract The adenomatoid tumors of the genital tract are rare neoplasms, with benign behavior; due to their histological characteristics, they are easily confused with tumors of vascular origin. Recent studies show that adenomatoid tumors of the female genital tract are genetically defined by the TRAF7 mutation that activates the aberrant expression of the NFkB pathway. We present the case of a 27-year-old woman, asymptomatic, who underwent bilateral salpingectomy as a method of definitive contraception; In the macroscopic examination of the right tuba, cystic formation is found which, due to its microscopic characteristics, is diagnosed as an adenomatoid tumor of the uterine tube. Finally, a review of the literature is made

ABSTRACT

Introducción: Los quistes epidermoides cerebrales son tumores de origen embrionario presentes desde la formación del tubo neural. Caso clínico: Hombre de 78 años con focalización en hemicuerpoizquierdo TAC cerebral reportó masa frontotemporal que se extirpó quirúrgicamente y el estudio histopatológico confirma diagnóstico de quiste epidermoide. Discusión: Los quistes epidermoides son tumores poco frecuentes y representan menos del 2% de los tumores intracraneales, el angulo cerebelopontino es la ubicación más frecuente y la resección completa junto con toda la cápsula es el único tratamiento efectivo.


Introduction: Epidermoid cysts are tumors of embryonic origin present since the formation of the neural tube. Case report: A 78-year-old male with a left hemisphere, brain CT scan reported frontotemporal mass that was surgically removed and the histopathological study confirmed a diagnosis of epidermoid cyst. Discussion: Epidermoid cysts are rare tumors and account for less than 2% of intracranial tumors, cerebellar angle is the most frequent site, and complete resection with the entire capsule is the only effective treatment.
